Skill #6 Critical Reading 1. Read through the פרק in English (this is the only one you should be looking at the English for). 2. Divide the פרק into smaller sections based on the content on what s going on in the story. 3. Give each section a descriptive title. There can be multiple ways to divide it, I m not looking for something specific, just something that makes sense. There should be more than 2 sections, but less than 12. Beyond that, you should use your judgement. 4. For each section, think of one question something that you don t understand, or that you feel is missing, etc. in פסוקים section Title Question 10
